FUNGIMENEZ project

In Utiel (Valencia), FUNGIMÉNEZ has a surface area of 12,550 m2 of modern facilities, equipped with the latest technology. In more than 40 rooms of 410 m2 of cultivation, it has a rapid cooling tunnel that allows the mushroom to maintain its weight, its quality, and its appearance throughout the process.

Because of their excellent properties, K-FLEX® insulating materials were chosen and installed in a warehouse dedicated to mushroom cultivation : K-FLEX® ST, K-FLEX® K-ROCK, K-FLEX® AL CLAD and accessories. The first phase was completed at the end of November.

There are now 20 small warehouses micro-heated and fully controlled to regulate and maintain Maximum and Minimum Temperatures, Relative Humidity, CO2 content, ventilation, diseases, pests, etc. Each warehouse has 4 rows of shelves to facilitate maximum cultivation.

GIMECHAMP, under the trade name FUNGIMÉNEZ, is the only Fruit and Vegetable Producers Organisation in the Autonomous Community of Valencia that cultivates mushrooms and other edible fungi.
